[deleted] LOL, the wackos at PETA propose a "weather reveal"
It [is] cruel to these animals to interrupt their hibernation.
NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg was bitten by the pissed-off groundhog in 2009.
And in 2014, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio dropped the groundhog hard onto the ground.
That groundhog died of internal bleeding a week later.
None of us would like to be woken up from a deep sleep and be held aloft to entertain a lot of strange creatures (humans).
